    This documentary is one of my best because I came up with the idea as inspired by what I see every day in the environment that I live in. I produced and directed on the types of shots I wanted and what needed to be captured by the cameraman. Above all, environmental stories are very close to my heart as a features reporter and editor. Environmental degradation has become a daily routine in Kenya
